Abstract: Various techniques are provided for dispensing cash from automated teller or similar cash dispensing machines where such machines do not contain or are otherwise unable to dispense coins or certain bill denominations. Such features may be offered in combination with a request to cash a negotiable instrument, such as a check, where some or all of the amount is to be received in cash or deposited into an account. In one particular method, an automated teller machine (ATM) includes a display screen, a data entry device, a receipt printer, a bill dispenser and a reader. According to the method, information is read from a negotiable instrument using the reader. A face amount of the negotiable instrument is received at the ATM from the data entry device. The display screen is employed to display a dispense amount in bills that the ATM is capable of dispensing along with a deposit account where the remaining funds may be deposited.
